In my limited experience with Ohio's Medicaid recovery unit they made it appear that they would place a lien on the house but not attempt to execute on the lien until the title transfers through an estate or sale.
Does having Appraisal gap nullify appraisal contingency ?
As a buyer, I have an appraisal contingency of walking out from the offer if the appraisal is less than contract price.
However, i also have an appraisal gap of bridging the cost upto a certain amount.
I have changed... Read more »
To be certain an attorney should review your purchase agreement. Most that I have seen allow you to terminate the contract if the appraisal comes in lower, but you usually have to notify the seller that you are terminating the contract within a specific amount of time
Our basement flooded and we received an estimate for work. We signed the estimate and we’re told it was “no problem” if we changed our mind. We told the company we were getting other estimates and to stop all work. They did an hour of work. We received other estimates that were 75% LESS than... Read more »

You are a creep. To ask this question you know its wrong regardless of whether it is legal. You should obey her parent's wishes until she has completed school and has started her career. Career is not a part time job
We’ve recently found out the final building inspection wasn’t done or approved by the City, have found flooding issues in the garage and discovered the plumbing vent for our master bathroom was never connected at all. None of this was disclosed to us and is not on any paperwork we signed. Not... Read more »
Your recourse against the sellers/flippers most likely will not exist. They did not reside in the house and therefore would not be required to complete a seller's disclosure statement. More than likely you had no communication directly with the Seller/flippers and therefore no fraudulent... Read more »
They told us we did NOT have to get vaccinated then an hour later told us that we DO need to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

I have not personally looked up the resources, but it is my understanding that the vaccine has not received final approval from the FDA.

My fence was installed prior to current neighbor living nextdoor. Original neighbor did not want fence so I specifically had it built inside the property line.

If the month to month lease was recorded you would have constructive notice of the lease. As it is, you have actual knowledge that a month to month lease existed, and was terminated by giving a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation on March 2, 2021.

It I recieved 1067.00 My sister was left his home and his funds totaling around 200 thousand or more. My father also had separate life policies on his children they cashed theirs in years ago I never did, my question is can I cash mine in it's a 25 thousand dollar policy or does it go to my sister.
If I understand your question, your father named you the beneficiary on a life insurance policy, but left everything to you sister in his will. A life insurance policy is not an asset of the estate and instead is a contract between the Insurance company, the owner of the policy and the beneficiary... Read more »

I don't want the services of a real estate agent. I do want the peace of mind that everything is done correctly insofar as the sale goes, disclosures by the seller, etc.
If you used a realtor it would cost at least 3% of the price of the home. A $100,000 would cost $3,000. A lawyer would be able to review the contracts and disclosures for less than the $3,000. However, a real estate agent is also there to make sure you are taking all the necessary steps to... Read more »
Our lease has been up since May 31, 2020. It says they will no longer automatically renew leases They never contacted us if we wanted to stay or not. But they have continued to cash our checks no problem . With the proper 30 days notice can we move out since we never signed a renewal?
You became a hold over tenant on a month to month basis. You can give your 30 day notice and move out. However, the thirty (30) days cannot run into the next month or term. So giving your thirty (30) day notice on 12/08/2020, would run into 01/2021 so your move out date would be 02/01/2021.
But the buyout fee is several thousand dollars and they won’t accept multiple payments... if we could afford that, we wouldn’t be moving… Is there no such thing as a hardship action for Ohio?? Is there any kind of legal help because of the current pandemic with so many people losing their jobs?
I am assuming that you are currently in a lease or rental agreement. If an eviction action is filed for non-payment (as you are probably leaving regardless), then you can request a stay based upon COVID and the CARES Act. The CDC now requires you to file an affidavit that you have attempted to... Read more »
